I recently upgraded my phpBB install to version 3.1.3, and unfortunately my MediaWiki Single Sign on integration no longer works due to how phpBB changed the way its underlying system has changed.

I have noticed that Area51's Mediawiki integration continues to work with the current version of phpBB. Would it be possible for the devs to post their Mediawiki Integration code? I suspect it is something rather simple, but I am not familiar with anything in the new phpBB codebase. The standard

I know there isn't any phpBB specific code on the Area51 forums for the Mediawiki, but the MediaWiki itself probably looks at phpBB sessions and decides how to handle logins on MediaWiki. I'm mostly interested in the custom code / extension on the MediaWiki that was used.

But it's no integrated here

I think what the OP meant was Mediawiki is integrated with our phpBB install on http://www.phpbb.com (Which it is).

They way it's integrated is rather complex and non-ideal (at the very least certainly not 'done in a more proper manner' as you say) due to the fact the wiki and phpbb.com are on different servers, use different databases etc.
